चर्ममर्मशिरासारसंधिसीमामनोरमा ॥ ७ ॥

carmamarmaśirāsārasaṃdhisīmāmanoramā || 7 ||

The lines marked under the soles of the feet, are as inscriptions marked on the foundation stone, and upon those at the base of the pedestals of the pillars; and the outer skin which covers the flesh, marrow, veins and arteries, and the joints of the body, is as the beautiful plaster of the building, hiding the mortar and bricks inside.
